I use VirtualBox v5.1.2
- host is Windows 10, guest is Linux Debian (6.0.9).
I want to very simple thing which actually doesn't work in my VB: I only want to connect from host to guest (where is running database server).
At this moment I have mobile internet connection on host via USB modem but I don't need internet in guest at all (either connect to or from guest).
I tried to set on VM network setting: Adapter 1 - > Attached to: Host-only adapter.
In Preferences of VirtualBox: Network -> Host-only Networks:
Adapter tab ->IPv4 Address: 192.168.150.2
, IPv4 Network Mask: 255.255.255.0
DHCP Server tab -> Server Address : 192.168.56.100
, Server Mask: 255.255.255.0
, Lower Address Bound: 192.168.56.101
, Upper Address Bound: 192.168.56.254
After this setting, the result of guest ifconfig
is:
eth0 (...) inet addr: 192.168.56.101
but I can't connect 192.168.56.101
from host: neither ping nor accessing server from host to guest.
Ping result in host is: Request timed out
.
I was also trying some NAT settings, but also without success.
Firewall is disabled during connection testing.
What am I doing wrong?
